Memory Care

Supportive Memory Care, Straight from the Heart

After a loved one has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease or another form of dementia, it takes a community like Signature Pointe to give back the control you feel you’re now missing. Our memory care neighborhood is more than just a protective environment where residents are well cared for. Instead, it’s filled with individuals who are purposefully engaged in programming and living each day with as much meaning as possible.

Our highly-trained, caring staff dedicates each day to life-affirming activities, enriching the lives of residents with Alzheimer’s disease and other related dementias.We believe in focusing on what abilities residents have now and what they would like to do in the future, rather than anything that might have been lost.

Customized and Compassionate Memory Care for Your Loved One

Every resident is different. Every story, every interest and every journey to Signature Pointe is unique. We take these differences very seriously. It is our goal to offer a compassionate experience that promotes dignity, care, support, quality of life and most of all, respect.

Signature Pointe is designed to be a personalized, warm environment that will help your loved one thrive each and every day and live with as much meaning as possible. By creating an atmosphere of care and compassion, Alzheimer’s and dementia residents have the opportunity to live in a highly-specialized, secure environment with 24/7 support.

Focusing Care on What Matters Most

Each resident’s journey at our memory support community in Dallas starts with an interview. We use this personalized interview to structure our care, doing everything in our power to focus our efforts on the abilities residents have now, instead of what may have been lost.

By getting to know each resident on a personal level, we can recommend activities, events and amenities that might be of interest to them. We can also build on the skills they still have to make each day enriching and unique.

Just as important, we take the time to sit down with you and your family members to help educate and inform you on what exactly your loved one is going through. We try to create that deeper understanding to help you and your family cope with what is happening and find tools to help during the adjustment period. We want you to feel just as comfortable as your loved one in our approach to everyday life at our memory care community.
